Happy vibes and tasty sangas - Edit
This place is awesome. I had the Reuben and it was oh so tasty. In the charcoal sourdough before they sold out of it today, I just love the flavours! Just like I remember when I wasn’t vegan, that sour cheesy goodness just like a Reuben should be!
Great vibes and cool space to hang out, I will be back at the shack!
Pros: great Sammie’s
Cons: none

:-I - Edit
The sandwiches are not great value at $15 for the My Mate Reuben & Bali Vibes; both were light on fillings and the bread slices are just too small to be a substantial sandwich.
Both felt like they were missing something; the reuben had too much sourness going on and needed another element to balance it out...some lettuce perhaps?
Bali vibes was okay but again missing something to make it pop.
The Strawberry & Cream smoothie was okay but not a standout.
I realise it's a grab and go eatery, but there is really nowhere to wait for your order without being in the way of either the staff or other customers. They may need to remove the bar seating and just leave the outside chairs and tables to allow easier access.

Awesome food and service - Edit
These guys know how to make “bacon sausage and egg” muffin! And the chickpea omelette is amazing too. Went in this morning and was really impressed with the service, the food and the cafe itself. I will definitely be going back for more! Yum.

Everything I want and need - Edit
Such a variety of flavours and textures... flipping out over the vegan eggs.
Ate heaps (Inc dessert) and still felt good afterwards.
Coffee was also great - will be back to try the different housemade-nut-milks

Umm wtf!!! - Edit
I have been waiting so long for the Vegan shack to open up and oh my was I impressed with my experience! It's such a cool space I felt welcomed as soon as I walked in. I got the Snitty and a Berry smoothie both delicious, seasoned perfectly and the balance of texture was well thought out to create a perfect Sammie! Keep up the good work guys, it's exciting to see a forward thinking business like yours open up in my hood!
Pros: everything
Cons: none
